Today is the last day of school before winter break here in Mountain View, and I know lots of people who are thrilled to have some time off school.
After a couple of days of sleeping in and watching crummy TV you may start to get bored; if so, you can come to the library for something to read (or play, or listen to!)
The library will be closed some days during the break (12/24 through 12/27, 12/31 through 1/3) but other than that we're open for business as usual.
There are lots of great new books on the shelves, some new manga series, and I've ordered a bunch of music lately that should be coming in soon (and you can place a hold on once they are in the catalog).
Just today I got in:
Bronxwood by Coe Booth, the sequel to Tyrel
Tegami Bachi volume 7
A Web of Air by Philip Reeve, the sequel to Fever Crumb
Ashfall by Mike Mullin, a dystopic novel set after the eruption of Yellowstone
Click on any title to see the catalog entry. These won't be on the shelves today, but hopefully will be there over the weekend. You can place a hold on them while the status still says "at processing"
Summer is Here! (well, not really...)
But our teen summer program schedule is really here!
We've got a fantastic lineup of summer programs for kids in grades 6-12 (including kids who will be in 6th grade in the fall) and always all of our programs are FREE!!!
Some of our programs happen every week and there's no need to sign up, but the rest of the programs happen just once and you have to register in advance. Click here to check out the list of programs and follow the links from each program to get to the registration page (registration starts on June 1).
